Understanding how internalized HIV stigma affects messaging about adherence to antiretroviral treatment in women living with HIV in the southern United States
Women living with HIV (WLWH) in the Southern United States face barriers to sustained adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART). 114 Southern WLWH were surveyed to assess perceptions about medication adherence and marketing techniques used to create potential intervention messaging. A cluster analysis using a modified Internalized HIV-related Stigma Scale was conducted, followed by perceptual mapping and vector message modeling to create 3D repre…
Using the Diffusion of Innovation Theory to Understand Covid-19 Booster Hesitancy in Adults
COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy is well documented, but less is known about booster hesitancy among fully vaccinated adults. A qualitative approach was employed to identify factors affecting COVID-19 booster hesitancy using diffusion of innovation (DoI) theory. The study was conducted in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In-depth interviews ( n = 30) were done with adults, including those who had ( n = 9) and had not ( n = 21) been boosted. Participants wer…

Development and user testing of gene pilot
Introduction Tumor genomic profiling (TGP) is used to optimize cancer treatment but is underutilized by Black patients, despite having disproportionately higher cancer morbidity and mortality. No interventions using electronic health decision support tools (eHealth DSTs) have been developed to assist patients with understanding this test or address barriers to uptake and communicating preferences with a doctor. Methods Using the Ottawa Decision S…
Combined self-stigma of justice system involvement, opioid use, and mental health disorder
Barriers and facilitators to engagement in care and medication adherence for women living with HIV in the Southern United States
Women living in the South have the second highest rate of HIV and the lowest rate of viral suppression among women in all regions in the United States (U.S.). Viral suppression is achieved by successfully linking women to HIV care and supporting adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART). We aimed to qualitatively explore perceived barriers and facilitators to HIV care engagement and ART adherence among women living with HIV in the South. Particip…
Social Location and Decision-Making Among Women Living with HIV in the Southern United States
HIV care engagement and antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence interventions aimed at decreasing viral suppression disparities for women living with HIV (WLWH) in the Southern United States (i.e., the South) are few and seldom consider diverse social locations. These refer broadly and dynamically to contextual factors and the position people occupy in a social hierarchy based on intersecting systems of oppression and social determinants of health…
Peer advice for women living with HIV in the Southern USA
Peer advice can provide emotional, social and practical assistance for the sustained self-management of chronic conditions. For stigmatised diseases such as HIV, finding support can be challenging. Women living with HIV in the Southern USA are additionally impacted upon by region-specific barriers such as stigma, poverty and limited access to services. The effectiveness of peer advice has been studied, yet little is known about the advice shared …

Perceptions of Live Donor Kidney Transplantation Using Segmentation Analysis and Perceptual Mapping to Understand Differences by Self-Reported Health Status in People on Dialysis
Living donor kidney transplantation is a superior treatment option for those with end stage kidney disease, but most transplants are from deceased donors. Securing a living donor for living donor kidney transplantation requires effective, well-timed communication which many may find difficult or intimidating. This study uses segmentation analysis and an innovative marketing technique called perceptual mapping to create three dimensional models to…
“It's my frenemy”
Background: Exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the proliferation of fentanyl and fentanyl analogs, overdose deaths have surged in the United States, making it important to understand how individuals who use drugs experience and perceive the risks of fentanyl use and how it has changed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Twenty clients from a Philadelphia syringe services program completed a questionnaire and in-depth interview about thei…
The Role of Medical Mistrust in Concerns about Tumor Genomic Profiling among Black and African American Cancer Patients
Tumor genomic profiling (TGP) is used in oncology practice to optimize cancer treatment and improve survival rates. However, TGP is underutilized among Black and African American (AA) patients, creating potential disparities in cancer treatment outcomes. Cost, accuracy, and privacy are barriers to genetic testing, but medical mistrust (MM) may also influence how Black and AA cancer patients perceive TGP. From December 2019 to February 2020, 112 B…
Religiosity and Covid-19
Objective : This study examines associations between changes in the use of remote worship services and changes in the types of social support among religious adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and Methods : Cross-sectional, web survey data ( n = 461; 15 May to 6 July 2020) were collected during the COVID-19 pandemic. Multinomial logistic regression models calculated unadjusted odds of increases and decreases of three types of perceive…
Exploring barriers and facilitators to PrEP use among transgender women in two urban areas
Without acknowledging specific barriers to PrEP uptake among transgender women separate from those of MSM and incorporating gender affirmation into PrEP education, simply knowing PrEP is available may not motivate trans women to use PrEP. This has important implications for future efforts to communicate about PrEP with trans women
We figured it out as we went along”
Syringe services programmes face operational challenges to provide life-sustaining services to people who use substances and those who have substance use disorders. COVID-19 has disrupted operations at these programmes and is a threat to people with substance use disorder because of severe poverty, de-prioritisation of COVID-19 safety and high prevalence of comorbidities. This phenomenological qualitative study describes 16 in-depth interviews wi…
Sars-CoV-2 Vaccine Hesitancy in a Sample of US Adults
Understanding which communities are most likely to be vaccine hesitant is necessary to increase vaccination rates to control the spread of SARS-CoV-2. This cross-sectional survey of adults ( n = 501) from three cities in the United States (Miami, FL, New York City, NY, San Francisco, CA) assessed the role of satisfaction with health and healthcare access and consumption of COVID-19 news, previously un-studied variables related to vaccine hesitanc…

Medical Mistrust and PrEP Perceptions Among Transgender Women
Transgender (trans) women experience unique barriers in accessing preventative health services such as HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP). These barriers may be exacerbated by past real or anticipated mistreatment in health care settings, but little is known about the relationship between medical mistrust and poor PrEP uptake and knowledge. Using a multistep approach, this study used a novel survey instrument administered to a pilot sample of 78 …

Ebola and the rhetoric of US newspapers
The 2014 West African Ebola outbreak was the first to be actively covered by the US media because of cases treated on US soil. Despite little chance of widespread contagion, US media termed Ebola ‘apocalyptic.’ The objective of this study was to understand how information about Ebola provided to the public through US newspapers was presented to assess how risk communication principles were or were not used. We conducted a systematic content analy…
Using perceptual mapping methods to understand gender differences in perceived barriers and benefits of clinical research participation in urban minority HIV+ patients
Minority participation in HIV clinical trials research is critical to understanding the impact of medications or behavioral interventions, but little is known about gender differences in perceptions of participation. We surveyed 50 minority HIV+ patients from an urban clinic to assess perceived risks/benefits of clinical trial research participation and used innovative marketing methods to analyze results. Perceptual mapping and vector message-mo…
Understanding help-seeking intentions in male military cadets
To move these cadets toward help-seeking, vector modeling suggests that interventions should focus on their general trust of doctors, accepting lack of control, and decreasing feelings of weakness when asking for help. For non-White cadets a focus on self-reliance may also need to be emphasized. Use of these unique methods resulted in articulation of specific barriers that if addressed early, may have lasting effects on help-seeking behavior as t…
Process and outcomes of a skin protection intervention for young adults
Efforts to reduce skin cancer risk behaviors using appearance-oriented interventions (e.g. ultraviolet (UV) light photos showing skin damage) or motivational interviewing (MI) have shown promise in recent trials. In the study a randomized 2 (UV photo versus no UV photo) x 2 (MI versus no MI) factorial design with longitudinal follow up was used. Results showed that progression in stage of change (SOC) was significantly more likely in the photo th…
